I think we all have giants to face, and we all have pits to deal with, but this guy takes on both of them head on. His example is one of courage that we should consider as we face the fear of our next giant or get discouraged by the…
Some of the scariest moments in life can be our greatest opportunities. When my father died, when my divorce happened, each of these things was a scary moment that pushed me to want to live! Sometimes we hide, and we play it safe because we’re afraid, so we never live…
